🥰"As the writer and theologian Amy Julia Becker puts it in her book, "To Be Made Well", “Both Jairus and this woman have come to the end of their ability to solve their own problem.”
That’s the first step. Not strength. Not having it all figured out. The first step toward wholeness is the moment we stop pretending and admit: I need help. I need Jesus." - Pastor Heidi

We began our first 9 a.m. worship service of the Summer with learning a little more about how Jesus makes us whole - Body, Mind, Spirit, and Community.

This Sunday we step into Ordinary Time with one of the Gospel's most tender chapters: Matthew is called, a woman reaches through a crowd for the hem of Jesus' robe, and a grieving father dares to believe. Three very different people — and all three are made whole.

Here's the good news we'll sit with: you don't have to have it all together before you come. The first step toward wholeness is simply admitting we need Jesus… and reaching out. 🙏

It's also Communion Sunday, so we'll come to the table with open hands — restored to ourselves, to God, and to one another. Bring whatever you're carrying. There's a place for you here.

Join us this Sunday, June 7 at 9 a.m. All are welcome. ❤️

🏕️ Community UMC family — summer is calling, and it's THIS SATURDAY!

The sun's out, the trees are leafing, and Wesley Woods UM Camp is throwing open its doors for the Summer Kick-Off Open House — and you're invited!

📅 Saturday, June 6th • 1:00–4:00 p.m.
📍 10896 Nixon Street, Indianola, Iowa 50125

Come help Wesley Woods launch a whole new season of ministry at camp. There'll be classic camp fun to try your hand at: archery, pony rides, crafts, and of course s'mores around the campfire. 🔥 Take an all-camp tour to peek at the lodging, check out the activities, and meet the staff who'll be loving on our kids all summer long.

Thinking about sending a first-time camper to Wesley Woods UM Camp? This is the perfect chance for them to get a feel for the place before their session begins. But truly — everyone is welcome. Bring the whole family! It's an Open House; come and go as you please.

Wesley Woods sits on 344 beautiful acres near Lake Ahquabi, and it's been growing world-changing disciples of Jesus since 1956. Come see why we love it. 💛
